LATER FROM CALIFORNIA.

New Yeas, June I6.

‘The morning Express has seen several private letters from San Francisco, detailing events there connected with the murder ot' James King. The Vigilance (Iominittee, says one oftliese letter writers, has upwards of50.000 men on its master roll. Casey and Corn, the murderers ofCol. Richard- son, would certainly be executed by this Committee on the morning of the §.'.'3d of May, the day after the departure of the steamer. The vigilance Committee, more- over, had determined to sit in perpetuity, until not only the city of San Frmicisco, but the entire State should be subjected to a thorough purification. They liave pre- pared tt “black list,” cmhracin_«_v the names of abotit I80 ofthe most notorious murder-

ers, thieves and blacklegs, all of whom will -

be required to quit the country at short notice, or contemplate the contingency of summary judgment before the tribunal of Judge Lynch. Among their nnnies are said to be those of Yankee Sullivan, the pugilist, and David Broderick, who was at one time the Democratic Southern candi- date for the United States, Senate.

The Vigilance Committee now extends throughout the State, and it is said, every little town and hamlet has its organization.

It is stated on good authority, that all the officials of the State intended to resign their oilices, and people are now inclined to look on the Vigilance Committee as the rulers and law-givers.

Casey and Corn were hung on the 29d of May, the same day on which Mr. King was buri .

The vigisnce committee had arrested several other desperate characters, inclu-‘ ding the notorious Yankee Sullivan. The latter committed suicide on the lst ofJune, in his cell,at the Committee rooms, leaving a confession touching the elections in San

ancisco.

The opponents ofthe vigilance committee attempted to hold a meeting on the 2d, to denounce the committee, but it proved 11 total failure.

Several murders recorded.

Rumours were circulated that Gov. John- s.on.would make it requisition to suppress tfiot-evolution, but nothing had been done’ 1! yet. These rutnours, however, created. much excitement throughout the state, and- word was sent from the interior, that a thousand men were ready to march to the assistance of the committee. Sacramento:

Sydney Smith, in his work on moral philosophy, speaks in this wise of wha: we lose for want of a little moral courage or independence of mind :——“A great deal of talent is lost to the world for the want of little courage. Every day sends to their graves a number of obscure men who have only remained in obscurit

A Goon Vsrtnrc'r.—.-\ Miss Charlotte Kcley has lately obtained a verdict against a fellow by the name of Anthony Kenr , at Cleveland, Ohio, for $3000. The foIIow- ing are the facts in the case:—Kear was once injured by the cars of the Cleveland, Columbus and Cincinnatti Railroad Com- pany, and the girl Charlotte nursed him- An attachment spran up between them, and under promise o marrying her, when he should obtain a verdict against the railroad company, which he had then sued, his relations became more intimate than the law allows. The suit against the com- pany was successful, and resulted in a veh- dict of $6000 for Keary. After obtaining a portion of the money,lio leftthe country and went to Ireland, leaving Charlotte and her child to take care of themselves. She brought a suit of breach of promise, &c., attached the balance yet due him from the railroad company, and gained the verdict against him.
